Helium Liquefier Unit

The obtained liquid helium is collected in a storage dewar included in the unit and is transferred back to the MEG system. Doing so approximately 70 % of the demand on liquid helium is covered by this process.
Apart from the financial profit the decision to install such a unit on our place was mainly driven by oecological reasons.
